the problem is gun ownership is an enumerated right -So far as we've seen with the abortion controversy, restricting access to abortion facilities by the various states has not generally been considered unconstitutional. The thinking seems to be that as long as there is some access, it's still within the state's right to restrict. Same with my proposed gun regulations. Own all the guns you like, keep the ones you already have -- but to buy them food we have a few little hoops to jump through first.
and the dependent clause really is inoperable in terms of individual rights..
I personally think it's going to take intense lobbying ( like the gun rights peeps did) to change anything
Long after I'm dead ( hopefully not from guns) maybe some things will change
